Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever (CCHF)
Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever (CCHF) is a viral haemorrhagic fever of the Nairovirus group. Although primarily a zoonosis, sporadic cases and outbreaks of CCHF affecting humans do occur. The disease is endemic in many countries in Africa, Europe and Asia.
The geographical distribution of the virus, like that of its tick vector, is widespread. Evidence of CCHF virus has been found in Africa, Asia, the Middle East and Eastern Europe. Healthcare workers in endemic areas should be aware of the illness and the correct infection control procedures to protect themselves and their patients from the risk of nosocomial (hospital-acquired) infection.
For more information please check the websites of WHO Regional Office for Europe and ECDC – European Center for Disease Prevention and Control.

Having trouble with Win 7 Admin
Ive been locked out of Admin for some reason. Every fix that I can find on the internet has never failed to supply me with an "Access Is Denied" error. It says I have full admin rights, but I can even access my hard drive. Ive gone through the cmd and tried everything through that also. I cant run my Win 7 cd for repair or full reboot. Any advice?

Boot the Win7 DVD (not Repair CD), press Shift + F10 at first screen to open a Command Line, follow these steps to enable Built-in Administrator - Enable from WinRE
If this fails boot into DVD (doesn't require password) System Recovery Options to System REstore to before the problem occurred. If this fails, run Startup Repair a few times. Next try SFC -SCANNOW Run in Command Prompt at Boot. You may be infected and need to boot Windows Defender Offline to run a full scan to be able to even repair the system. As a last resort use the Win7 DVD to Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7 - steps are same for retail. |

I tried the Built-In Admin - Enable from WinRE and the System Recover options, and I cant even get into safe mode. If literally tried everything. Ive changed my BIOS to boot from the CD (Win 7) and it still says access is denied, and then boots onto the harddrive.

Never seen an Access Denied error trying to boot Win7 installer. Could this be a BIOS password lockout?
If not then see if any other bootable disk will boot, try another Win7 ISO burned to DVD or written to flash stick from Steps 1 and 2 here: Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7. Next try resetting BIOS to defaults: Clear CMOS - 3 Ways to Clear the CMOS - Reset BIOS Once you get disk booted if repairs from Post #2 won't work, there are steps in the Clean Reinstall link just above to rescue your files before reinstall. |

I'd post a screenshot if I could, but the paint pops up the notification of "No error occurred" and it doesn't let me save it to the hard drive. When it access is denied pops up its when I want to open my hard drive, run a few key programs (EVGA Precision, or Speed Fan for example) and it says

Screenshot via digital camera? Showing the "access denied" that you stated you get when trying to boot from any device.
Or are you past that, as appears to be the case based on info in your last post. In order to understand the context in which you're getting those errors a screenshot would be most helpful. |

"Halarious Read"
Very funny book, Didn't find the PDF spoken about though.... Had me laughing the whole time.
"Good Starter"
This book is great to familerize yourself with some of the content needed on the A+ test. It obviously cant include everything, but its a good starting point to see if you are up to the challenge, or if you need to brush up on your skills a bit more.
"Amazing book"
This excerpt is just a small taste of the wretched disgustingness of this book. With that said, this book is a great read, The author's use of details is amazing and it really comes to life.
"Intresting read"
A very well put slimmed down version of these two guys's ventures.
"Very intresting book"
Story was very interesting, good style of writing. However the narration was a bit unpleasant to the ears. Still a great book for the Microsoft fan.

Georgia ranked No. 16, Bulldogs look to bounce back from injury-riddled season
The Orlando Sentinel's college insider Matt Murschel has ranked all 128 Football Bowl Subdivision teams in the country entering the 2014 season. The Sentinel staff will take a closer look at a new team daily, counting backward from No. 128 to our projected No. 1 team.
Today at No. 16: Georgia
Coach: Mark Richt (126-45 entering 14th season, 126-45 overall)
2013 results: 8-5 (5-3 in SEC, third place in SEC East)
Offensive starters returning: 6
Offensive starters lost: 5
Defensive starters returning: 6
Defensive starters lost: 5
Key losses: QB Aaron Murray, TE Arthur Lynch, OT Kenarious Gates, DT Garrison Smith, S Josh Harvey-Clemons, S Tray Matthews, DT Jon Taylor
Top returnees: RB Todd Gurley, WR Chris Conley, WR Malcolm Mitchell, RB Keith Marshall, QB Hutson Mason, WR Michael Bennett, C David Andrews, DE Ray Drew, LB Ramik Wilson, LB Amarlo Herrera, CB Damian Swann, LB Jordan Jenkins
Look back: Coach Mark Richt endured a frustrating, injury-ravaged season that included the loss of All-SEC running back Todd Gurley for several games and an ACL tear on senior night for record-setting quarterback Aaron Murray.
The banged-up Bulldogs fell at home to Missouri and at Vanderbilt for the first time since 2006. But Georgia rebounded to beat Florida and win four of its final five regular-season games. The only loss was a 43-38 heartbreaker to Auburn, a game sealed by an unlikely play later referred to as the "Immaculate Deflection."
The Bulldogs ended the season with a loss in the Gator Bowl to Nebraska to conclude their third sub-par season under Richt in five years. Georgia finished 8-5 in 2009 and 6-7 in 2010 before winning 10 and 12 games, respectively, in 2011 and 2012 with Murray under center.
Strengths: Gurley could be a Heisman candidate if he can remain healthy. When available, Gurley and reserve tailback Keith Marshall offer a one-two punch few others in college football can match. Malcolm Mitchell, Chris Conley and Michael Bennett form one of the SEC's top wide receiving corps, which should help fifth-year senior quarterback Hutson Mason take over the starting job.
The Bulldogs' defense is stacked at linebacker with Ramik Wilson (133 tackles in 2013), Jordan Jenkins (five sacks, 23 QB hurries) and Amarlo Herrera (112 tackles). Cornerback Damian Swann is an All-SEC candidate in the secondary.
Weaknesses: Mason received invaluable experience during the final two games of 2013, starting against Georgia Tech and Nebraska. After waiting four years, he receives the daunting assignment of replacing Murray, the SEC's all-time leader in passing yards and passing touchdowns. Mason will have the skill players around him to succeed, but the offensive line needs to bond quickly for the Bulldogs' attack to reach its potential.
Georgia's defense was stacked entering the offseason and poised for big things under new defensive coordinator Jeremy Pruitt, who left FSU to lead the Bulldogs' lineup. But Richt dismissed starting safeties Tray Matthews and Josh Harvey-Clemons and defensive tackle Jon Taylor during the offseason, leaving some key question marks for a brand-new defensive staff.
Outlook: The Bulldogs and Mason will find out quickly about their prospects in 2014. Georgia opens at home against ACC power Clemson, followed by a visit to SEC power South Carolina two weeks later. Georgia will either find itself in ideal position or clawing from behind before October arrives.
2014 Schedule
Aug. 30 Clemson
Sept. 13 at South Carolina
Sept. 20 Troy
Sept. 27 Tennessee
Oct. 4 Vanderbilt
Oct. 11 at Missouri
Oct. 18 at Arkansas
Nov. 1 Florida in Jacksonville
Nov. 8 at Kentucky
Nov. 15 Auburn
Nov. 22 Charleston Southern
Nov. 29 Georgia Tech

Below you'll find comprehensive reviews of the major NJ online poker rooms along with answers to frequently asked questions about legal online poker in New Jersey.
Last updated: November 27th, 2014.
Room | Traffic | Promos | Software | Support | Overall |
Party NJ | C+ | C | D | D- | C |
Borgata | C+ | B | D | D- | C |
PartyPokerNJ: After a seven-year hiatus, the former market leader for online poker is back in the United States. Sharing a network with Borgata Poker, PartyPoker NJ is the current market leader in New Jersey as measured by cash game traffic.
Read our complete Party NJ review >>>
BorgataPoker.com: The leading brand for live poker in New Jersey shares a network with PartyPoker, meaning that the two rooms have the same software and share the same player pool. But each offers unique promotions to players.
Read our complete Borgata Online Poker review >>>
WSOP.com: The biggest national name in live poker offers online poker for real money in both Nevada and New Jersey (although the player pools are separate) – and it's the only site where you can qualify for a WSOP seat online.
Read our full WSOP.com NJ review >>>
888 Poker NJ: While providing the software for WSOP.com, 888 is also operating their own brand in New Jersey. That 888 Poker NJ brand operates on a totally separate network – The All American Poker Network – with a player pool that is partially shared with WSOP.
Read the complete 888 NJ review >>>
As it currently stands, here are the active online poker sites in New Jersey from most active to least active, with a general estimate of market share:
Click on the link of any room above for an in-depth analysis of the site's traffic for cash games and tournaments.
In terms of the overall market size: You can track traffic at New Jersey online poker sites over at PokerScout.com. For reference, the largest site in New Jersey (Party / Borgata) is generally ranked 30th-40th in terms of global online poker traffic.
Suffice it to say, traffic is substantial enough to guarantee a variety of low-to-mid-stakes games and a variety of MTTs and SNGs (also at the lower end of the buyin spectrum).
Right now the game of choice at most rooms is no limit holdem.
Remember, most of the software powering online poker sites in New Jersey is not new. In some cases, it's been around for over a decade (888 and PartyPoker, for example). So these rooms all have the capability to add new games. It's more a matter of whether or not there's sufficient player interest to justify adding new games, especially when you start talking about more niche variants like HORSE or Badugi.

In short: The purchase of PokerStars by Amaya will likely assuage the concerns New Jersey regulators had about licensing PokerStars.
New Jersey law does not contain a so-called "bad actors" clause, so the decision about whether to allow PokerStars in is left completely up to regulators.
With that said, PokerStars' approval to offer online poker in NJ is taking longer than anticipated. Here's an article covering the various theories behind that delay. The generally accepted timeline for launch at this point has PokerStars going live in New Jersey sometime in early 2015.
Read a comprehensive list of answers to questions about PokerStars in New Jersey here, a preview of PokerStars NJ and a preview of Full Tilt Poker NJ.

Click on any link below to be taken to the iTunes page for the app mentioned.
Google does not allow any real-money gambling apps in the Google Play Store.
Therefore, you'll need to visit the site for a given poker room using your Android phone or tablet in order to download the app.
Available Android apps for NJ online poker:
PartyPoker and Borgata also offer a Java-based browser version of their software that may work on some devices.
For regular updates on new mobile apps and other developments in New Jersey, bookmark our NJ news section.

Yes. If you are located within New Jersey, you can play real-money poker and casino games at a variety of regulated sites. The official list of legal NJ online casinos and poker rooms is located here.
You do not need to be a resident of New Jersey to play at the state's regulated online poker sites. You only need to be located within the state to play for real money.
You can access your account from anywhere in the United States. You can also deposit and cash out from anywhere. But you must be located within the borders of New Jersey (as verified by the site's geolocation software) in order to play for real money.
As of the last update to this FAQ, there were three networks offering online poker in New Jersey:
As of January 12, 2015, WSOP and 888 share some – but not all – of their respective player pools.
You can read reviews of all three networks by clicking on the links above.
Note: Ultimate Poker was active in NJ but closed in September of 2014. Betfair (in partnership with Trump Plaza) technically had a poker site, but traffic at said site was non-existent and the room was formally shuttered in november of 2014.
Yes. But how many rooms there will ultimately be in NJ remains something of an open question:
The performance of the state to date suggests that New Jersey is capable of supporting one or two distinct online poker networks over the long run.
Here's an older, but still relevant, piece from OPR that looks at state population levels and what those levels suggest for said state's ability to support online poker rooms.
Once PokerStars launches in NJ, we may see some consolidation among the state's existing poker networks. 888 and WSOP NJ have already indicated that some sort of liquidity sharing between the two sites is in the works.
In New Jersey, only land-based casinos qualify for online gambling permits (called Internet Gaming Permits by NJ regulators). But regulations also allow those casinos to partner with technology providers, who must also be vetted and licensed (albeit at a lower level of licensing) to take part in New Jersey's regulated online gambling market.
Each Internet Gaming Permit – the license received by a land-based casino like The Borgata – can be used to operate up to five websites. And each website can be a distinct brand.
So, in the case of the Borgata, their IGP is being used to power the following sites:
And each site is powered by the bwin.party poker and casino software. In addition, the PartyPoker online poker site and the Borgata online poker site both feed into the same central player pool.
This question has, unfortunately, already been somewhat answered by the DGE.
When Trump Plaza announced plans to close, it was the first Atlantic City casino with an Internet Gaming Permit to shut down. Trump Plaza has a partnership with Betfair that allows Betfair to operate an online casino in NJ.
The NJ DGE subsequently announced that Betfair could continue to operate online in NJ after the Plaza closes, contingent upon a few basic requirements. And Betfair then successfully located a new partner with the Golden Nugget Casino. But in the absence of a new partner, it seems that Betfair would have had to eventually close up shop in New Jersey.
Ultimate Poker closed after its business relationship with Trump Taj Mahal reportedly went south. Get more details on the closing of Ultimate Poker / UCasino. Ultimate subsequently ceased operations in Nevada in early November.

Regulated online gambling was made legal by a bill that Gov. Chris Christie signed into law back in February of 2013.
In order to offer online poker or online casino games in New Jersey, sites must have the approval of the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement.
Any other site that offers such games for real money to residents of New Jersey is in violation of state law.
Sites approved by the NJ Division of Gaming Enforcement. The official list is here.
You can review NJ's online gambling regulations in full here.
[- Hide]
Same as the land-based casino age: You must be 21 to play at NJ's regulated online poker sites and casinos.
Anyone of age who can be confirmed by a given site as being located within the state can play online poker in New Jersey. You do not need to be a resident of New Jersey.
Yes. Right now the player pools are made up only of people in New Jersey.
No, you can just visit one of the websites approved by the DGE.
No. Delaware players are only playing against other people in Delaware, and the same goes for online poker players in Nevada and New Jersey.
It is expected that some US states will at some point combine their player pools for online poker and casino gaming, much in the same way that several states pool lottery prize pools across a coalition of states (Powerball, for example).
But compacts are a complex affair and there are any number of factors slowing their development. So there's no firm timeline or blueprint for how states like New Jersey will come to share player pools with other states offering regulated online gambling.

Read an in-depth, method-by-method breakdown of depositing at Party / Borgata here and one for 888 / WSOP here.
A quick overview of ways to deposit and cashout at NJ online poker sites follows below.
Methods vary by site. Credit cards, echecks, ACH deposits prepaid cards and deposits at the casino cage are options offered by various NJ online poker sites.
The most reliable method, and also one of the fastest, is ACH (bank transfer).
Yes, VISA deposits currently have what are generally regarded as the lowest acceptance rates for online poker deposits in New Jersey. Even though these deposits are perfectly legal, several of VISA's issuing banks have decided to hold off on accepting such transactions for now.
One alternative is to use your VISA to fund an ewallet such as Neteller, and then to fund your player account using Neteller.
VISA acceptance rates are expected to improve in 2015 when the company rolls out new merchant category codes designed specifically for regulated online gambling.
Yes. MasterCard acceptance rates are much higher than VISA and are easily the highest of any credit card. American Express does not allow gambling-related transactions.
No. American Express generally doesn't allow gambling-related transactions regardless of legality, and the NJ online poker market is no exception.
Not at this point. PayPal stopped accepting US gambling transactions several years ago and has yet to update their policies to reflect the new reality of regulated online gambling in the United States.
With that said, PayPal is reportedly set to return to the NJ market sometime in 2015.
For a number of reasons, but the short answer is that many banks and companies like PayPal are waiting to see how regulated online gambling works out before jumping in. They're concerned about possible unanticipated liabilities and weighing those against the revenue potential of regulated online gambling.
Once the amount of money involved grows and the uncertainty recedes, depositing at one of NJ's online poker rooms will become an easier thing to do.
Read an in-depth, method-by-method breakdown of depositing at Party / Borgata here and one for 888 / WSOP here.

Room | Traffic | Promos | Software | Support | Overall |
Party NJ | C+ | C | D | D- | C |
Borgata | C+ | B | D | D- | C |
The number of online poker sites in New Jersey is small enough that the question of which site is the "best" site becomes somewhat moot. Unlike the international market, where there are dozens of sites, NJ is home to only four unique online poker rooms.
That means players can realistically give all of NJ's online poker rooms a fair trial and determine for themselves which is superior.
In most cases, players will derive the greatest benefit from playing at multiple (if not all of) NJ's online poker rooms in order to maximize promotional and bonus value.
[- Hide]
New player bonuses come in two forums: no deposit bonuses, where players are given some amount of free money to try out the room, and deposit bonuses, where the poker site matches an amount deposited by the player with some sort of bonus funds the player can then convert into real money via further play.
We've broken down the bonuses available for online poker NJ players:
[- Hide]
Sites are required by regulations to demonstrate both that they can provide a secure gameplay environment and that they can securely store your personal information.
New Jersey's regulated online poker rooms are subject to strict and regular oversight. If you have any suspicions, you can file a complaint with New Jersey regulators directly.
Sites are required to verify player identity by regulations, both to ensure you're eligible to create an account and also for tax reporting purposes.
If you are playing at one of the approved, licensed sites in New Jersey then you should feel comfortable providing this information.
Sites need it in order to verify your identity, ensuring that accounts are only being created and used by those of legal age to gamble online (21).

I have a small business and thus, contribute to a SEP IRA account. I'm a 50 YO female, and like most, lost approximately half of my earnings in my retirement account. Now that tax time is here, I have the option to contribute my maximum based on my 2008 earnings, but I'm hesitant to do so for fear of loosing that as well. Now, I'm aware the markets have been on an upswing the past few weeks. My accountant suggests contributing, but....
Is it wise to contribute now or ride it out and keep the money in my ING savings account? Thanks. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Hi Deb, Heck, you're young, yet, girl - I'm much older, and thankful to be enjoying good health. Do you like to get products that you're buying on sale? Do you feel happy to get a product at not just an artificial "sale" reduction of 40%, but a real, verifiable 40% reduction? Stocks are on sale, these days, many quality companies being available at 40% off earlier prices (which were, in a number of cases, overpriced). They may be on fire sale, later - no one knows now whether that may happen, whether the market may drop substantially more before it moves on a mainly upward path again. Maybe not. Do you plan to retire within 3 or 4 years, maybe 5? You're planning to be leaving that retirement account alone, to just sit there and grow, for several more years, aren't you? I'm pretty sure that in about five years you'll be pleased with the results produced by a number of the equity investments that you make now. With the huge debts that the U.S. is carrying ... plus the massive current deficits to finance the bottomless pit called "Iraq" ... and not only the bailouts to date ... but almost certainly more later ... the U.S. must depend on foreign financial suppliers. Did you note the Chairman of China worrying to Hillary a week ago about whether the U.S. is managing their money well? If the main banker of the U.S., the gov't. of China, doesn't want to lend more money without major inducements ... the U.S. will have to offer higher interest rates, so many are expecting inflation here. Especially since the U.S. is printing money at a great rate. Do you figure to retire right soon, i.e., within three years or so ... maybe within five? If so, you may want to invest mainly in guaranteed-dollar assets - but even then, I'd say only related to money that you plan to need within the first few years of your retirement. For money in there that you don't plan to withdraw for five years after retirement, or maybe up till 10, there's a good possibility that they'll grow better over those years in equities rather than in guaranteed-dollar assets. Guaranteed dollars in the bank, bond, etc. apart from the rent that they produce on the money, not only don't grow ... in an inflationary environment, they lose value every year! Plus - when interest rates rise ... the sale price of bonds issued earlier goes down. I've been investing for almost 50 years, and worked as a personal financial advisor for 25 years recently - sold mutual funds initially for about a year, but didn't sell enough to suit my sponsoring broker, so didn't stay. Since then, offered advice only, sold no financial products: no conflict of interest. Now, at 80, I have some of my assets in equity mutual funds, all bought prior to about 18 years ago: very few of the managers produce better growth rates than the parallel market averages, and they charge a fee for their management "expertise" every year. If they're as smart as they claim ... how come the stuff that they manage doesn't grow faster than the market averages? I also have bought several individual stocks, periodically, as I had money available ... so that about 80% of my assets are in those equity-based situations. I've lived in 22 locations, so have never owned a home, which many expect to increase in value, largely due to inflation. I'm fortunate that, living frugally, I don't burn up all of my income from my three pensions, so don't need to draw on my equities. They'd lost something about 30% of their value, at the bottom of the market, but that didn't trouble me substantially - not as much as I'd thought that it might. In fact, I've been buying some more within the past two or three years ... and have seen them go down, as well ... ... but I expect that they'll recover, given time ... and now, they're paying a higher rate of dividend than earlier, when their prices were higher: Canadian banks are paying 5.5% - 8.5% dividend rates, these days ... and at very low tax rate (but interest attracts tax at top rate, outside of tax-deferred retirement accounts). Some Canadian oil and gas, commercial, real estate, transportation, etc. companies that have agreed to pay out most of their profit in order to avoid tax have been paying 10 - 15 - 20% (with some risk of reduction, as earnings reduce). One rents out water heaters, so has fairly stable cash flow ... and pays 18%. They must all become regular corporations within a couple of years. Good wishes for taking the long view - yes, you may die tomorrow ... but the possibilities are good that you'll live till 85, at least. When we buy life insurance ... we bet that we're going to die (early) ... and the life insurance companies bet that we're going to live ... and they're the ones with the actuaries! In this situation, you have the opportunity to choose an investment that will pay you while you're still alive ... and no longer working ... not wait till you're dead to pay! ole joyful |
Thanks ole joyful....I always enjoy your posts where ever I read them. Yesterday, I finally decided to move forward and contribute the max to my SEP. Though my head was saying no, my heart was saying it's the right thing to do at 50 years old. So, with that, I'll contribute in low risk for now until things stablize. Then I can move things around. We're all hoping thing rebound real soon, and stay steady or better, at that. I'm also somewhat of a frugal person, and seeing all that hard-earned money dissipate, is difficult for anyone to take....but I am not nearly alone, and many have lost a heck of a lot more, unfortunately. Thanks for your post and the heads up via private email. |

I mean no offense, but I don't understand this kind of thinking. Your lost half your retirement and are thinking about putting more money where you lost the other. I would put it in the bank, why take a chance of losing more. |

I think ol' joyful is right in encouraging you to put money into equities - you're not retiring soon, and the money will likely grow over the long term. There are 2 issues here - one is whether to fund your IRA and what to do with the investment. The answer to the first question is a big YES - if you've got the money to do so...it will lower your tax basis (I believe that a SEP IRA is like a 401K/403B in that you're putting pre-tax dollars into a SEP and paying tax on the your gross income minus the contribution.) In either event - even without that tax advantage, the interest and growth you will have is tqax free or tax deferred. The second issue is whether to buy equities or put the money in fixed income vehicles (money market, treasuries, etc.) which you surely can do within the SEP IRA investment choices |

Here is a link that might be useful: Retirement Panning
Heck ... I've been retired for over 10 years now ... and I'm not about to "pan" retirement! I think that it's great, especially when one's in good health! (Actually, I think that the previous poster meant "retirement planning" in her/his link ... and I'm just teasing a bit). When you're retired ... every day is holiday! If you plan to live for more than 10 years ... better carry some of your assets in equities. By the way ... she didn't actually lose money when the markets went down ... unless she sold! When the markets have gone down heavily ... that may well be a time to buy, rather than sell! There's a good possibility that the markets will recover most of their former "value", given time. They were overpriced before. They're largely underpriced now (or were so, a few months ago, prior to recent partial recovery). Many of you guys'd have a heck of a time being a farmer ... you'd be afraid to buy a cow ... for fear that she'd die on you! Why should the banks make more on the money that you lend them than you do on that money? Learn to manage it effectively yourself! I hope that you're enjoying spring ... I should be home, planting garden. ole joyful P.S. Question: What's better than putting your money into a bank? Answer: Buying (a chunk of) (a well-managed, e.g. Canadian ... and many U.S., usually smaller, that haven't got too big for their britches) a bank! o j |

Time to take a closer look at the work of both teams and the intelligence they got from the A-3 system:
The Post Office effort:
Alfred Muche and the 5B machine
Unfortunately for the Germans the 5B machine was destroyed by aerial bombardment in late 1943. Muche then spent 8 months building an improved version and completed that task in the summer of 1944. The machine continued to intercept and decode the traffic till '45 when the unit was forced to move. He did not know what happened to the machine at the end of the war. For his efforts he was given the Kriegsverdienstkreuz and a Speer reward of 10.000 marks.
In theory thanks to SIGSALY the Allies had absolute security from mid '43 onwards. However it seems that the device did not work properly till October '43 and only became fully operational in April '44. Even then officials continued to use the A-3 for most of the traffic since the only Sigsaly link could be accessed at the Cabinet War Rooms and only a few people had authorization to use it.
Overall the story of the A-3 scrambler and the German efforts against it is an interesting chapter in the history of communications security.

text: Portland retail continues to roll along its merry way this week. Over the weekend, the new outpost from the people who were among the first to define Portland's independent boutique scene with Local35, softly opened its doors. Called Machus, it's taken up residence in the big corner space of the BSide6 building at 542 E Burnside. It's still finding its sea legs and developing a brand list, but as of now it feels like a an even more urbane, slightly industrial shop with tough accessories and stiff A.P.C. denim swinging alongside Alexander Wang tees and Band of Outsiders pieces.

There were times when India was over dependent on Sachin for that special innings to lift the spirit of the whole team. If Sachin gets out under 10 runs India would eventually fail to post good score or faulter at run chase. If Sachin scores more than 50 runs then others would also chip in with some runs to show better fight.. If this is not the case always it remained for most of the matches.
But now India is not too overly dependent on Virat Kohli as we have more match winners at the moment in India team with the likes of Shikhar Dhawan, Rohit Sharma, Mahender Singh Dhoni, Ajinkya Rahane and in bowling department Mohammed Shami and allround players like Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja.. Virat Kohli is performing way better than all these players but the contributions of the rest of the key players cannot be forgotten.. So this is not a worrying sign at all for the Indian team..

In particular, if you were not using render targets, but the backbuffer to render your sahdow maps (by then copying the render into a texture and not swapping).
You could have an issue because obviously the backbuffer will have the size of the window. But nothing to do with render states or techniques in any case.
Apparently this message is talking about some states put in the fx code. do you have a different .fx file for your case with 800x600 window and 1280x1024 window ?
(by the way, why do you have window in 4:3 aspect ratio, you still have a 4:3 screen ?)

you ask why does screen have 4:3 ratio? Isn't it still standard resolution ratio nowaday? I mean I will, at least, try to make this game go public, so shouldn't it at least have 4:3 ratio?

Scores of dragons are dead after plague swept across the world of Pern, and now the Weyrs are struggling to rebuild before Threadfall destroys everything�and everyone�left alive. Their best hope lies with a group of new dragonriders who have volunteered to brave the dangers of an unexplored island populated by vicious wild felines and voracious tunnel-snakes to create a safe home for their young dragons, whose offspring will hopefully replenish Pern�s decimated population. But their leader, Xhinna, the first female rider of a blue dragon, faces an uphill battle to win the respect of her peers, especially after tragedy leaves the new colony reeling. The way forward seems to lie with the awesome ability of the dragons to travel through time. But that power comes with risks: By venturing into the past, Xhinna may jeopardize the very future she has sworn to save.

Here's a list of some concerns that many people with early Morgan Out Islands have refit, repaired or altered:
1. Many have found a delamination of the port and starboard rudder halves that began with a hairline crack and water intrusion. A common fix has been to fare a fiberglass tabbing over the seam. Some, like myself, have had to split and rebuild the rudder.
2. There has been a frequent problem with corrosion where the aluminum mast is stepped on a steel step. Many have replaced or sealed the step from contact with the aluminum.
3. Some have found the back-up plate under the forestay at the stem corroded or the hull deck joint at this location stressed. Some have placed a stainless plate outside the leading edge of the bow remove the force of the headstay from the hull deck joint.
4. I think that by 1977 all the hull-deck joints were moved up to the toe rail instead of the rub rail. Those with the joint at the rub rail need to be wary of damage. Many have had rennovations of the rub rail.
5. Portlight leaks with the failing of the rubber gasket systems are common. Many have refit the portlights with after market products or used oversized polycarbonate plates fastened over the openings.
6. Water intrusion in the balsa cored deck has commonly caused a comestic problem with soft spots on the deck. I have had success by cutting away the top layer of the deck with a rotary tool and removing the damp balsa and replacing it with a composite like Devinylcel (or similar spelling).
I've also completed the expected replacements that would be common for any boat of this age,- fuel tanks, pumps, engines, electronics, rigging, sails, galley stove, etc. Take care and joy, Aythya crew

I confess that I am totally confused by the Wages for office workers in Vancouver.
Vancouver police launch crackdown on drivers talking on cellphones
The Vancouver Police Department ticketed 47 drivers on two days earlier this week for phoning or texting on an electronic device.
According to a department statement, the officers were in "covert Crime Watch" vehicles when they were handing out the notices.
Anyone found guilty of violating the provincial law against talking or texting on an electronic device while driving must pay a $167 fine.
Last year, the department issued tickets to 9,722 drivers for using an electronic device while behind the wheel.

And how about issuing tickets to those who drive while drinking a cup of coffee or a slurpee?
Jun 8, 2014 at 10:33 am
Finally, the VPD does something I can get behind.
Jun 8, 2014 at 11:32 am
I've seen some crazy drivers talking or texting on their cells and just flying on the Burrard and Cambie bridges.
Jun 8, 2014 at 12:21 pm
THANK GOD !!!! It's about time! But I have also seen officers driving while on their cell phones on 2 occasions. Once on West 8th and the other was trying to park on Granville street.
Jun 8, 2014 at 12:34 pm
$167! Oooooooh! That'll put an end to this stupidity. NOT! Distracted drivers (mostly due to cell phones) kill more people in this province than drunk drivers. Yet it seems we throw all kinds of resources at the drunken ones and barely nothing at the talking/texting ones. Gee, wouldn't have anything to do with votes would it? How about a $500 fine and 24 hour license suspension for the first offence. And then heavier penalties for subsequent offences. Then the lickspittle politicos can really claim to be taking it seriously.
Jun 8, 2014 at 3:26 pm
The long arm of the law ALWAYS uses electronic devices that distracts them. Whether they are driving a car, bicycle, horse, or walking. Absolute hypocrisy!
Jun 8, 2014 at 3:45 pm
If an average of 27 drivers per day were ticketed last year (9,722 divided by 365), how can 24 drivers per day (47 tickets in two days last week) be called a "crackdown"?
This is a non-story, like a lot of other "news" these days.

Seriously, Wear More Eye Makeup
By Tom Miller
There are a lot of guys who like nothing better than a girl who rolls out of bed, brushes her chompers, throws on a pair of jeans and a shirt and is ready for whatever life has to throw at her. I am not one of those guys. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate that sometimes you (or I) may want to throw on a non-Red Sox cap and beeline it to the quickie mart for all the essentials (Fruit Roll-Ups, TP, ketchup, Olde English, the basics).
But, as the Bible tells us, there's a time for business and there's a time for grab-assin' around. Going out (on the town) is business time. And business time means eye makeup. (What you do at work is totally unimportant to me; you can spend 8 – 6 looking Maria Bartiromo after a tequila bender for all I care.)
If you're a frequent reader of this space (and who's to say that you're not?), you know that I'm a smidge obsessive about women's eyebrows (not dangerously obsessive but comically obsessive). But unlike eyebrows, where having a plan and sticking to it is paramount, eye makeup requires a bit more of a deft hand and eye for class. Too much makeup and you end up looking like Tipsy the drunk clown. Too little makeup and why even bother?
Before you get all "You're a typical little boy, you just want us to be in high heels and short skirts blah blah blah," I'd like to say that it doesn't really matter what you're wearing. You can wear sexy flats or sexy boots or even sexy sneakers instead of sexy high heels. You don't have to wear a sexy skirt, you can wear sexy jeans or a sexy dress or sexy slacks or sexy tights under a long shirt. You just can't wear sexy skorts because they haven't been invented yet.
Eye makeup (and I'm not sure what all is involved but I believe the components are eye-liner, eyeshadow and, possible, masqueradera) creates a little mystery that blush (which I like to call rouge) and lip stuff can't touch. Plus lipstick* and foundation have a tendency to get left behind on glasses, shirts and sheets.
Eye makeup creates mystery. Dudes love mystery and it's accompanying excitement (Jedi, on the other hand, do not crave adventure or excitement). And it's not just new guys. Keeping the mystery alive in your relationship will keep things fresh. And if things aren't fresh and fun, it's just a bunch of waiting around for the other shoe to drop. If throwing on some cat-eyes time and again keeps the fires burning, we're willing to watch TV for the extra 20 minutes it might take you to get ready.**
Grown men know how long it takes to get ready and we appreciate the effort and we'll try to remember to sincerely compliment you more. Keep in mind that too much eye makeup makes you look like a whore, an emo bassist or Tammy Faye Baker and adjust accordingly. Or don't, some guys may like that ennui-ridden, will-have-sex-for-money, televangelist's wife look.
*Note: I agree, it would look a little strange to spend 35 minutes on your eye makeup and totally neglect your lips.

Boy hurt in turnpike accident near Bonner Springs
Truck overturns after traveling too fast on exit
March 22, 2008
A 10-year-old boy was flown by air ambulance Children's Mercy Hospital about 10:30 a.m. Saturday, after a semitrailer rolled over on the Kansas Turnpike near Bonner Springs and Kansas Highway 7.
The boy was a passenger in a 2001 truck driven by Javier Ruiseco, a 35-year-old Las Vegas man.
According to the Kansas Turnpike Authority, Ruiseco was traveling west on the turnpike and went too fast on an exit for Kansas Highway 7 and lost control of the truck.
The truck rolled into a ditch. Ruiseco was not injured. The boy's condition was unavailable Saturday afternoon.

Benchmarking and Worldwide Market Trends for Flexographic Printing
July 19, 2010As part of the research, LPC surveyed more than 75 print buyers or specifiers to learn about their purchasing practices and any biases they have towards flexography. Not surprisingly, 63% of those respondents believe that flexography has limitations when it comes to their specific applications. Many of the limitations cited related to print quality issues, however some felt flexo lead times were longer, flexo printing plates were too costly, and there was concern around authentication of packaging using flexo versus other print processes. But, despite those concerns, more than 70% of those respondents also indicate that their company's use of flexography will increase during the next five years, often replacing materials printed by another print process (see Figure 1).
It is also interesting to note that print buyers expect in the next five years they will be sourcing their flexo printed products from regions of the world separate from the one in which they are located. In fact, 70% anticipate sourcing these materials from Asia, while 60% will be sourcing from Latin America.
Getting back to the quality perceptions about flexography mentioned earlier, clearly those concerns are not an issue in the tag and label sector where an estimated 92% of label printers in North America use flexography on their production floor. In fact, the quality levels of flexo-printed graphics are the highest in the tag and label marketplace where the narrow to mid-web presses produce six to ten-color, 175 linescreen applications with sophisticated graphics targeted at discerning consumers. It should be noted though, that digital presses are making a tremendous impact on the flexographic label industry as flexo printers around the globe install digital press systems alongside their conventional flexo presses. Given this development, it should be no surprise that the study predicts that as digital press systems offer faster run speeds and enhanced processing options, digital printing will undoubtedly take market share from flexo in the tag and label sector.
Flexible packaging is another high quality, high growth area for this print process, whereas rotogravure is slowly declining. To quote the study, "In no other flexo sector does the converted product have to perform like in the flexible packaging marketplace. The package must decorate, convey, contain, preserve, protect and provide optimum functionality." As a result, like the tag and label market, due to customer demand, the number of colors has increased for flexo printed flexible packaging, and line screen values are trending upwards with values of 133 lpi or higher. These quality improvements, along with decreasing run lengths and lower costs, give flexography the upper hand over rotogravure, which once was the dominant process for flexible packaging. On a global scale flexo dominates the flexible packaging sector with over 64% of the market share.
The report concludes "as flexo press, ink, plate and prepress technologies continue to raise quality and print-consistency standards; run size trends and total applied cost benefits continue to position flexo as a process that will increasingly capture gravure market share in every global region."
The growth of flexography has implications for every NPES member, presenting both challenges and opportunities. Even if flexography isn't the focus of your company's products or services, flexo growth may cause downward pressures on your existing conventional products.
The study "Benchmarking and Worldwide Market Trends for Flexographic Printing" was circulated to all PRIMIR members and is available upon request to all NPES members as one of their many member benefits.
